How do I begin to describe this simply breathtaking property?
247 acres of fertile, volcanic, farming country situated in the Wollumbin ( Mount Warning) Caldera, bordered by the start of the Tweed River at one end and adjoining the Mebbin national Park at the other. It is a truly spectacular farm. As you cross the Tweed and wind up the hill to the homestead the full impact of the view begins casting its intoxicating spell and you are at once transported to the magic of "The Rainbow Region".
The immaculate and luxurious, modern 3 bedroom home is seated high on a hill surrounded by lush green pastures ( even in the drought) making the most of the dramatic 360 degree views from every room. Tiled throughout, the open plan kitchen/dining/living room employs an extensive use of glass to allow the outside in. And a massive 184 sqm wrap around verandah provides the perfect outdoor entertainment area, where you could happily wile away the hours watching the ever-changing moods of the Border Ranges as they loom majestically above.
The ultra-modern kitchen has by-fold windows on 2 walls with a servery to the verandah and unbelievable views over the dam to the Border Ranges. The appliances include; a double draw dishwasher, 5 burner gas cooktop, 70cm electric oven and a 2 door fridge/freezer with ice dispenser.
The master bedroom enjoys stunning views of Mount Burrell and Sphinx Rock, with sliding glass door to the verandah, a walk-in wardrobe and deluxe en-suite. The 2nd and 3rd bedrooms are spacious and light and both have built-in robes. The main bathroom has a deep spa bath and shower and the 2 door access
makes it an en-suite for the 2nd bedroom.
A large separate laundry can be accessed from the living room or verandah and a 3rd toilet services the outdoor entertaining area. Enjoy a hot spa under the stars or a cool plunge in the summer heat, either way there'll be plenty to look at, as the night skies are as
enchanting as the daily views.
The home is fully insulated with central heating and air-conditioning.
4 x 22,000l water tanks and a large roof supply ample rainwater.
A Biocycle septic system deals with the black and grey water.
A large shed with kitchenette and lean too area, and a separate
tractor shed completes the building infrastructure picture.
THE LAND
Of the 100ha. roughly 65ha. are cleared for grazing with a capacity of <120 head. The land is lush, rich and fertile and the cattle are thriving. There are 4 dams, one of which is 11m deep, holding 16 mega-litres and numerous creeks traverse the property. The southern boundary borders the official start of the Tweed River. Most of the land can be accessed by 4 wheel drive (but on horseback even better!)
The forested land joins the Mebbin National Park and is timbered with native hardwoods in the N/W corner and rainforest in the N/E corner, creating a wonderful habitat for numerous species of flora and fauna.
In the cool darkness of the rainforest you will find glow worms and glowing fungi as well as refreshing rock pools and you may even hear a lyrebird.
The irrigated orchard is a testament to the soil. With a list of 30+ established fruit trees, the varieties too numerous to detail now.
For the motorbike enthusiast there's 6km of Enduro bike tracks with potential for more and 900m of Motorcross tracks to delight the thrill seeker.
The property is fully fenced except for the forested northern boundary. Included in the sale are galvanized steel, changeable cattle yards with a 200 head capacity and electronic scales.
This property is large enough to have 2 titles thus enabling it to have 2 dwellings and 2 granny flats, should you wish to subdivide in the future. It also joins the National park, making it suitable for tourist accommodation and/or retreats.
Wildlife is at your doorstep. You will be delighted daily by the likes of wallabies, echidnas, turtles, platypi and eagles, to name a few.
Only 1 hour to the Gold Coast, 30 mins. to Murwillumbah, 20 minutes to Uki and Nimbin and 5 minutes to the Mount Burrell General Store/fuel station and the well-loved Sphinx Rock Cafe.
This property has to be seen to be believed. It is the stuff of dreams.
Watch the video and then.
